Harmful in Excess -Good.Moderation

There are 8 things which are harmful in excess and beneficial in moderation: (Avos D'Rabbi Noson, 37: 5)

# 4. Wealth (the other 3 were wine, sleep and work)’

Wealth in moderation buys you so many good things in life. Wealth in excess can become an obsession. It can turn into wealth for its own sake and protecting it becomes of paramount importance.

How wealthy is wealthy enough? If you don’t have an answer to that question that you can stick to, you are heading for trouble.
